D Correct answer
Explanation

Calculate the average sales for each color in Delhi and Mumbai. Red: Delhi (76+70+70+95)/4 = 77.75, Mumbai (76+89+65+81)/4 = 77.75. Since the averages are equal, Red is the correct answer.

AI explanation

Using the formula for calculating an average, add the t-shirt sales across all four styles for each color in both cities and divide by four. For Red, the average sales in Delhi are (76 + 70 + 70 + 95) divided by 4, yielding 77.75. For Red in Mumbai, the average is (76 + 89 + 65 + 81) divided by 4, which also equals exactly 77.75. Checking the other colors reveals no matching averages between the two cities, confirming Red as the answer.
